The Noyelle Beat

Standard Fare may be named after a sign spotted on a bus, but the effect is anything but pedestrian - these Sheffield indie poppers are the kind of band whose name you'd happily scrawl on the cover of your school exercise book. A power trio comprising Emma Kupa, Danny How and Andy Beswick, The Noyelle Beat is their debut album. Recorded in six days with an indie aesthetic that would have made John Peel proud, the album is named for a formative period in the band's development when they traveled across the channel to play at a festival in Noyelles Sous.
